Opportunity Summary:
The White Clay Creek opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number NPS 10 NERO 0078) is a National Park Service (NPS) discretionary funding notice issued by the U.S. Department of the Interior. It is explicitly labeled as a Notice of Intent to Award, meaning it is not an open call for proposals and not a request for applications. Instead of inviting new applicants to compete, the NPS is publicly documenting its intent to provide funding through a non-competitive action tied to an existing relationship.
The planned award is structured as a cooperative agreement, which typically indicates an arrangement where the federal agency expects to have substantial involvement in the project activities, as opposed to a standard grant where the recipient generally operates more independently. In this case, the NPS is proposing a modification (identified as modification 0003) to an existing cooperative agreement, numbered H4507080510. The identified cooperator is the White Clay Watershed Association, and the notice signals that the NPS intends to continue supporting specific project activities under that established agreement rather than opening the work up to full and open competition.
The funding scope is categorized under the Environment activity area. The notice lists an expected number of awards as one, aligning with the non-competitive intent and the named partner organization. The total estimated funding is $76,500, and both the award ceiling and award floor are also set at $76,500, which effectively indicates a single, fixed award amount rather than a range. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient is not expected to provide a required financial match as a condition of the award.
Although the eligibility field references nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status (other than institutions of higher education), the practical impact of this particular posting is limited because it is not soliciting applications. The key purpose is transparency: it provides public notice that federal funds are intended to be awarded to a specified organization through an amendment to an existing cooperative agreement without competition. The posting date and creation date are both September 27, 2010, with an original and current closing date of October 1, 2010, and an archive date of October 2, 2010, reflecting that this was a time-bound public notice rather than a competitive funding window.
For readers who want the finer details of the intended project activities, the notice directs them to the attachment available through the "Full Announcement" link associated with the posting. For technical help accessing the announcement, the listed contact is Jennifer Fleming, Contract/Agreements Specialist at the National Park Service, reachable by phone at 215-597-6476.
